AN: Sorry for the slow update... busy with exams. I hope you like this chapter and please review, they make my day.

Usagi woke up the next morning to the warm sun on her face. She couldn't wait for her day with Mamoru. She knew that everything would be okay as long as she was with him.

Walking to her adjoining bathroom she went to get ready. Fixing her hair in their usual odangos, she put on a little blush and lip-gloss. Then walking back into her bedroom she picked out her clothes. She paused in front of her closet.

What should I wear? Mamo-chan is always seeing me in the same clothes. I know he loves me and what I wear doesn't matter to him, but I want to look nice. I need to buy some new clothes.

She scanned her closet but found nothing new or close to new. All her clothes had been worn several times. That was the problem with living in a semi poor family. Of course Mamoru had bought her several pieces, but still…

Sighing, she looked at her watch. It was almost 7:30, she only had a half hour left, and she still had to talk to her parents about her going out for breakfast.

Suddenly, an idea came to her. She looked around the room for her cat, Luna. Luna was a great friend, and guardian. Although sometimes bossy and demanding, Usagi loved her. But her friendly kitty was nowhere in sight. It was her only chance if she was fast.

She grabbed a fancy pen like substance and held her towards herself. " Luna pen… transform me into… a trendy teen," she said softly.

Soon, she was glowing and slowly changing her appearance. Within seconds, she was dressed and ready to leave. She looked in the mirror before she left the room.

She wore a short pink summer dress, with tiny like red roses. On her feet, she had pink high heeled, strapped sandals and a matching mini purse. She hated to use her pen for this, and not for senshi business, but she was really in a bind. She'd just have to go shopping later that day for new clothes.

Rushing out of her bedroom, she walked quickly down the stairs. Walking into the kitchen, she met both her parents and little brother, who all seemed to be eating breakfast. They all paused when she entered the room.

" Good morning Mom. Dad. Shingo."

" Morning Usagi," they all said in turn.

Usagi was about to tell her parents about her going out for breakfast with Mamoru, when her mother looked at her funny. Staring for a second then she turned at looked at Usagi's father and then once again back at Usagi.

" Usagi?" her mother said looking over at her in slight confusion. " When did you get that outfit?"

Usagi momentarily looked down, almost forgetting what she was wearing. She smiled back at her mother. She'd just have to lie. She had gotten used to it by now. She always had to lie, about her sudden absences, her always tiredness, and sometimes cuts and bruises.

" Mamo-chan bought it for me a few days ago," she lied looking straight into her mother's eyes. She hated that she was so good at it. Her mother merely nodded.

" I'm going out for breakfast with Mamoru, okay?" she asked her parents.

" Usagi again? You're always out with that boy," her father stated.

Usagi tried not to get mad. So what if she spent a lot of time with him, they were dating. Plus in a few years they would get married and have Chibi-Usa. So again, what was the big deal? Of course she could never tell her parents any of this, so she just sighed.

" Yes, Dad, I know. But we are in love," she sighed dreamily.

Shingo, who had been previously silent, let out a long scream of yuuuccckkkkk. Usagi just smiled at him and then headed to the front door to wait for Mamoru.

Not too long after, she saw Mamoru's motorcycle pull up next to her house. Turning her head back towards the kitchen, she said goodbye to her family. Usagi quickly walked out of the house and ran into Mamoru's open arms.

After a somewhat romantic breakfast, the couple went to their favorite hangout, the arcade. It was the coolest gathering place in town, not to mention their best friend owned the place and gave them free food.

Sitting down at the front of the arcade, the owner, Motoki, came over and greeted them. Placing their orders, he went into the backroom leaving them alone.

" Oh Mamoru, I'm still worried about that stalker guy."

" Don't worry, I'll protect you."

Usagi placed her head on his shoulder and sighed. She was still very nervous. But Mamoru was here to protect her and she was sure he would do exactly that even if it meant his own downfall.

At that same time, in a beaten down building, her stalker paced. He wore the same heavy black overcoat and shaded glasses, even though they he was inside. He was alone in the building, as no one went there because it was so beaten up. Here, the man was having a battle within himself.

Get that girl who caused you so much pain. Crush her and make her suffer. She deserves it; remember what she did to you. You don't want her to be happy, make her sad like you were for months.

Don't. Yes she hurt you, but it wasn't her fault, she just didn't love you. But you can't hurt her. No, you still care for her. Let it go… let the plan go…

The man stood there fighting with himself, being crazy and insane as he was. He wanted revenge, but he knew he could never hurt her… not physically. Mentally yes though… he could… just make her suffer a little.

He sat down and started writing a ransom letter. Tomorrow night, he'd follow through with him plan. First the kidnap and then the delivery of the letter, the letter that told the person that he knew who she was… with all her abilities, and that she was going to suffer.
